Hi, Folks - Found at dinardetectives.com/updates: ===== 9-15-14 TNT DINAR CC (Notes by Adept1): Replay 805.399.1500, PIN CODE 409029# http://events.instantteleseminar.com/?eventid=60000600 Pam is reminding Tony that the bill for the forum needs to be paid. Hopefully it will be the last time! Pam: If they are going to shut us down, let it be for an RV and not because we didn’t pay our bill! Tony: Maybe there are trying to wait us out, hoping we don’t pay our bill! They nearly got us last month. Good morning, TNT! It is Monday, September 15, 2014. We never, EVER expected to be here, especially after Friday! We do have additional, up-to-date information as of this morning. DC: I didn’t expect to be on this call either. Tony: We are here, and have both East and West to bring up to date. It is what it is! No calls otherwise, nothing to look out for… so let’s do it! It was a great, great weekend. DC: On Friday, the CBI in written form and phone calls, they said that they are not waiting on any political move, but doing it when they deem it’s appropriate, so be ready. Then they went silent for Friday afternoon, saying that next time folk here from them it would be good. Meanwhile, television was given detailed specific locations on banks that are prepped and ready for this, saying that they shouldn’t stand in lines, just walk through quietly, and make sure people check the prices as they buy things now. There have been detailed instructions since Thursday on the TV, radio and internet. Even this morning, they said the economic reform is coming very soon or immediately. All of us are saying, “Okay, what’s going on?” is going on in Iraq as well as here, suspecting that this is another government move to screw everyone over. That is starting to cause an issue, because they expected to have celebrations on Saturday. People are feeling frustrated, wondering what’s going on. Tony: Go back to Friday. On that day, we knew there was a timeframe, and the whole world thought it would be just before Forex closed, so they would have the whole weekend to do payouts. CBI went quiet and didn’t come back up until Sunday night. They went into detail about where to exchange and what to do when people got there, and to go inside the banks to get instructions. Saturday morning, they announced that this was the day all Iraqis had been waiting for, as a preannouncement for the celebrations that were due. DC: Everyone is frustrated, but they haven’t turned off the TV spots. They’ve had finance ministers come on to explain what’s happening, and they are putting ‘very soon’ on the bottom of the television screens. The celebrations did not occur. However, Parliament did meet on Sunday, and did the formal seating of the Ministers for the Interior and Defense, plus passing laws to make sure all goes smoothly for the RV. Tony: I want to make sure we know that Abadi is doing that to show that everyone has their say in an inclusive way. They voted on the ministers, for currency reform, and they sent it all to the Gazette for publication. DC: On the streets, they are worrying that this is yet another Maliki move, to make last minute demands. Frustration levels are high, and that is not the right attitude for fighting ISIL. The latter are still an issue in Iraq. Tony: So they are having this on television every day. They are not waiting the US approval to do this or anything else, YET they are getting people excited for the fifth or sixth time, and that is dangerous because they don’t know how the people will react if this doesn’t come through. People are starting to get agitated, saying Abadi is just like Maliki if this doesn’t come through now. DC: Intelligence, security and politicians are putting on pressure to get this done now. CBI says they are serious, although no one has heard from them in 2-3 days. A lot of folks have held off because they didn’t hear from the CBI. Across the world, bankers, security, etc, go serious, bringing people in and being fully prepared, because the CBI told them to be ready. The CBI still says the y are not waiting on anything political. The tension is getting up there. Bankers had many meetings yesterday, a lot of people from all levels. They are not being dragged in on a Sunday because they enjoy seeing each other during Sunday football, but to prepare things. Same thing happened with security and law enforcement. Everyone is at a ready state since yesterday afternoon. Tony: Thursday night, this exact same thing happened – they brought in people for meetings, told staff and security to be in on Friday morning until CBI went dark. The broke it down, only to be called back on Sunday night. So they are feeling the same way we are feeling. DC: The 2-15 minutes hold is still in play. Across the world there were exchanges going on that were primarily tests, and everything is working well and ready to go. We are all sitting here waiting – antsy, frustrated, ready to move on. Are we waiting for a specific time? My folks say they are just waiting on the CBI to do their business, an that is a short rapid pull. Everyone is trying to influence the windows. The USA has six windows they would prefer, and so does Hong Kong, and the CBI said respectfully that they will take that into consideration but it’s still the CBI’s decision. Tony: We know that rate has gone as far as the teller level, because they were ready on Friday. It’s not $1.09, just to everyone knows. Also, DC, you were very generous with the ‘test’ statement. Just to talk about something else for a moment, we can talk about exchange process and procedures while we are waiting for the CBI. So if you have questions about investment scenarios, ask DC while we are waiting. This is a great opportunity for you to invest in E-D printing, which was supported by President Obama. We saw the first CAR made by #-D printing, and they were able to drive it afterwards. The price went back to the 1960s—maybe $10,000. There was a hidden gem in that presentation; at least 100-billion-dollar person will come out of this industry. They gave you a clue or a hint, and it’s something I told you to look at months ago – the real golden opportunity. The 3-D printers will be everywhere, including on your own desktop, and some will start their own businesses with the larger printers. There is still a golden opportunity right in that video. 208 caller: Are we at Plan A or have we slid over to Plan B? DC: We are in the middle of a bizarre state, neither A or B. The US was being pushy, and now it is Iraq’s hands. A and B have gone out the window. Iraq, because of the US and some others, have been cleaning up the parliamentary ministers and some other cleanup issues. They didn’t have to for the RV; it was a request with incentives. Our understanding is that they got that done last Monday, and some folks who were in town a week ago had created more issues than they intended. So then they had to clear those up. Then the CBI sent out notifications and phone calls to all the banks, saying that it was now up to them, not waiting for any more international stuff. That’s when they started all the television ads. Today, it is 100% in Iraq’s hand now, and has been since 28. August. Caller: Do you see anything else that would blindside us during this process? DC: Basically, no. It’s clear that no one is having any of it, or even listening to potential delays. All requests have been flatly rejected. I don’t really any realistic option apart from begging and pleading, and how long can you do that? Caller: Tony… we lost a few of our mods over the weekend. Can you comment on that? Tony: I can, but first… they have been talking to their people for 4-5 days. Maybe they want to get it out to all the rural areas before they make the change. We know they were giving examples of the change in prices. So we know they are closer than they were, and we just don’t know why they are holding it back. Parliament signed everything, but yes, they are still holding it back. It could be political; we don’t know. DC: It’s been saying on television that prices have changed, so merchants have changed their prices. It’s very confusing. Tony: We’ve been doing this for over a year. Mods come and go; people experience different pressures. I believe n allowing adults to be adults, and people are free to do whatever they choose. It’s a free site, we don’t get paid anything, and people are on the site for different reasons. There is a gamut of things going on. If someone feels that they want to go out on their own, or with a different group of people, that’s okay. There are some things I don’t believe, such as our government falling on Saturday morning, or of our currency changing overnight. I don’t believe in certain things that I feel are only for their groups. Sometimes you just outgrow the people you love. I talked to Okie on Saturday. I don’t endorse everything he says, and he doesn’t endorse everything he says. I’m okay with that – it’s how you learn. You take in the various pieces and see what makes sense in the big picture. I accept everybody; then I find out who people are, and threat them accordingly. I’m not afraid of people knowing who I am – it’s all over the internet. I just want to tell the truth. I’ve been offering all kinds of deals, and I’m not interested. I have enough money, and I don’t want to be part of a group that takes your money after the fact. I just say “it is what it is” until it’s done. That is what we do here: tell you what is going on. I’m just as frustrated as anyone else. They are right: it hasn’t happened yet. They will think they are right until it happens. The rate is X, the President is still the President, and we don’t have pink banknotes. We’re just talking about the RV; they’re talking a bout the whole government, economy and all the rest of it, worldwide. They are talking about ideas and suggestions about how to get paid off this or that organization. I don’t need all that, and if they spent the same time looking at the other currencies, and which ones will be changing in the second, third and fourth baskets, then we could all be looking for the truth together rather than looking at how to rip off people. I’m NOT talking about why our particular people might have left. Caller: [Appreciation] Tony: As my wife say, I put on my pants like any other person! 570 caller: I think I’ll have to go back and re-read Jekyll Island. You answered my question about Plan A and Plan B, that we are basically on Plan C. Online, they seemed to be saying the US and UK are holding it up, but you are saying it is in the hands of the CBI. Is that correct? I’m confused. Tony: Let’s say CBI has all the power right now, because everybody has signed off on everything, given it to IMF and CIS, and all they have to do now is to push the button. Imagine someone is now saying, “You have the power, and we gave it to you so you can tell you people so that they can have confidence in you.” But in the back room, they might sweeten the deal so you don’t do it until Friday, or Monday. What we were doing in the front is now being done behind closed doors, for whatever reason: one-third of the country is occupied and we can help you get them out, or whatever. The danger is that Iraq has told their people to get ready again, and if it doesn’t it will look like what Maliki did. He only expected ISIL to be there for one day and they would grant him martial law, and look what happened there. You cannot unlight a match, so those who think Tony should burn down the house… are you sure that is what you want to do? DC: What are we waiting on? We don’t really know. We know it’s ready to go, the CBI has to trigger it, and everyone is sitting on the edges of the seats. This is some pretty serious poker with some expert players, so it’s not something you want to drag out longer. Everyone is pissed and concerned that this did not come out on Saturday. Lots of people are saying, “This is not good and it has to be fixed.” The CBI continues to say “It’s up to use” and we know that. There is a lot of debate about timing, but not a lot of outside influence, so we are having trouble understanding what’s going on. Caller: I would love to see this happen, but you are answering my question, that nobody knows what is stopping this. 717 caller: I know we need to use the right terminology and symbols, such as IQN, VNN, and ZWN. What will be the Indonesian rupiah? DC: I don’t know. Caller: Maybe Ray can tell us. Tony, I really see how you are one of a kind, and so gracious to people. You said “political pressure in the back rooms”. Iraq has been such a puppet to the US, and I wonder if Iraq is now saying “This is our ball; we want to make a point that we are now a sovereign state after following the US for so long.” Or, when you talk about political pressure, will the end result be what we are all fearing, that it will explode, is that maybe what someone wants? Tony: I don’t’ believe they are trying to stick it to us, because in the last administration they were pushing for this to happen everyday, so they would get paid. Now, with this new government, they still have to get their piece of the pie, because that’s how it’s done over there. They could say, “we have to look like we’re in charge”, which they should be. That’s where the confidence comes from in the country, and for the other countries and businesses that want to invest in Iraq. However, you can only say that so many times, especially when you are giving detailed instructions to the people on how to exchange and to check the prices. That is the danger of the game they are playing with their people, and they don’t know where the flare might come from if someone decides they don’t’ want to wait any longer and they take to the streets. That is not what you want in the first month of a new government, and it could happen in an heartbeat. Nobody wants it to get to that point, but they are playing with fire now. Caller: Help me understand how this makes sense, that we can exchange sometimes for a ‘test’ to make sure everything is going… am I missing something there? Tony: DC called it a test, but I did have a lady do an exchange and she sent me a copy of the receipt. Over the weekend, she was contacted and they want their money back because they weren’t supposed to do that yet! DC: Test incidents are where they exchange people to test the system – and we are right to be snarky about that. They are doing a few exchanges under the guise of testing. They are not being mischievous, and they really are system tests while they take care of a few people. That’s fine, as long as they do the RV really soon! What’s much more dangerous is if Iraq pulls the trigger and everyone goes, and then the US says “Oops we have some issues”. Caller: Were these the international rates they were testing or contract rates? DC: We know of several people who exchanged, and I didn’t ask the rates because I didn’t want to cause a problem. Caller: I’ve been doing research on 3-D printing. There is a local company that produces the material to do that. 919 caller: Thanks for picking my call; last week my carrier dropped my line. If ask good questions, can I talk for half an hour with you guys? Joking. Is Iraq now 100% sovereign in the world’s eyes and the WTO? Tony: They have been referred to as sovereign, they are just a sovereign partner with the US like many others. DC: WTO accession is a process; they are a piece of the puzzle, not a leading indicator but a trailing one. We will find out the WTO details after the face. Caller: If I go into the bank, are we still using IQN, VNN, etc.? How do I get the contract rate on the dong? Tony: Yes. As for the dong, some people have said that the dong contract will not be available, but I think they will have to make it available if only to avoid the hellfire that will result if they do not. Caller: Another call was saying something about the China contract rate and the US contract rate. Tony: We don’t know for sure, but we do understand that there are three rates, and they have to use those up. Ask for what rates are available. Caller: Okie said yesterday that he knew weeks ago that this wouldn’t pop until 15. September at the earliest; did you know? Tony: yes, some people said it wouldn’t happen until the 15th, and other have said not until the 22nd. I tell you what we are getting from all our contacts and our own observations, where the dignitaries and bankers went to Iraq – for something that they didn’t think would happen for a couple of weeks? It could be, but I don’t see it. Caller: There was a gentleman who got hurt from another site, and I have news on that, if you would like to keep my phone number and call me later. 801 caller: This is Bella your transcriber. DC, you are doing so much better today! I’m so proud of you! Have been there been any updates as to whether the Admiral’s group will exchange before our groups? You said in the past that the contract is between China and the UST, treated as an oil commodity, with no taxes, but there will be a 9-11% tariff on that amount? What is your opinion, DC? DC: Our understanding is that it’s gone back and forth a great deal, but the organizing principle is that they already have a good number of people who have all the information they need, and they are briefed and ready to go. If I were starting something, and there was a group who had their act together as opposed to those who are clueless, I would take that organized group first. The groups are only ready to be processed in a few locations, and if you are also in that location, it might take a little longer. For most people, we will go right through. Yes, I read those docs and they do have a tariff treaty deal; they also reserve the right to change their minds. Example: If I have a rental property and I exchange it for another rental property of similar value, I can defer the taxes. My attorney has been advising me, and I will not be in the Admiral’s group. It is a well-organized group, and some other groups are organized as well. I have heard that they have tried to change things. The tax or tariff is written in there, exchanging like for like as under 1j031 of the IRS code. Also, I am not of aware of their timelines. Some groups will be a nightmare, and I’m not a lawyer so I don’t fully understand, but as a simple Texan, something does not smell right in some of those groups. 562 caller: Do you think that Abadi might take the offer from the US to delay this until November or even January? Tony: They made an offer and it was declined already. They might be (not the US) slow-rolling him by just getting this doen, then that done, giving Abadi short time frames and seeing how many of those they can do instead of asking for 60 days in a lump. Nobody is going to agree to 60 days! However, the mistake in that is that Abadi has already broadcast that they are doing this, and I think the Iraqi people would take to the streets like they did in the past. DC: Abadi has been asked to do that several different people, like the President, VP and others. He has been respectful, and replied that this is why the earlier PM got in trouble, while Abadi was brought in to sort all this out. Abadi knows what happened 13 months ago, and people will turn on him if he doesn’t get this released. Abadi could not have had all this come out on television without wanting to get this done. Strategically, he knows that this could blow up in everyone’s face. By broadcasting it now, Abadi is telling the whole world that this has to get done, and don’t ask for any more delays… and if someone does ask, they are being a jerk. I have friends who are both Dems and Republicans. I had a nice conversations with a senior Democrat this morning, and he said that they need this badly. He said, look at what the midterms look like. The President has the lowest approval rating he’s ever had, and his core constituency is eroding in a major way. He has a great ability to raise funds, but that’s only one part. Immigration issues are causing problems with their major supporters. He has turned the economy, but many supporters still don’t have jobs, and the U6 rate is still high. The Democrats really want this released, even after President Obama’s speech, which was a great speech. All the Democrats are saying “Give us this RV; we need to get some wealth out there and get our people excited to vote again.” If anyone is saying that they want to delay this for election purposes, they are full of baloney. Is there a person who still wants to delay this until January? Yes. But why did the President sign off on this, why is it all on television, and why are they declining US phone calls? Because Iraq wants to get this done. Caller: Has this RVed in other countries, such as Egypt? We hear the stories… DC: Some of those were tests, and in some case, the bank thought the RV was live, and so they exchanged. They called folks in and it was fine, and they realized that it had not formally been released. So that is why people have been saying that their family members have gone through. That is going on. Tony: This was scheduled for Friday evening, and on Saturday morning, it was announced in the mosques, so they started paying people! They just jumped the guns. Caller: If this doesn’t happen in the next day or two, what’s your opinion? Tony: I agree, they are playing with fire! If they go back and say that they are going to wait another ten days, a lot of people will be pissed off. DC: The world is trying to calm down the Sunnis in Iraq and western Syria, and this is poking them with a stick! Tony: ISIL is paying these people and they want to get paid – they’re hungry! Caller: Let’s hope we will be jumping up and down any day now! [appreciation] 210 caller: On the forum someone put on a post of what the bank might try to do to you, like not letting you look at the monitor; what could you do to see the contract rate. DC: I would ask to see it. If they’re not going to be honest with you, go to another bank. The banks will be highly motivated to give you the highest rates, because they get 2% of whatever you exchange for. Caller: He also put on there that the NDA had investment on it. What would we do if it says investment rather than currency exchange? DC: I don’t know. The exchange is for the tax situation so I don’t know. I do think that we will be like cattle in the chute, and I suspect the bank guy will look strangely at you if you want to change any details. They will just offer you A, B or C. The bank people I’ve talked to just want to get everyone processed. Tony: Today is the day to call an attorney to ask how to handle that. Don’t wait until you are sitting in the bank to get that figured out. 570 caller: This is my first time on the call. When we go the bank, do you know if we can request a certified check to put in a separate account to buy a car or house. DC: The first appointment is just for the exchange. After that, you can move money around however you like, including moving it to other banks. Tony: You might have to wait 24 hours, but you can go to your regular bank then. Caller: What if you don’t have one of those banks in your area? DC: You can get a wire transfer or a certified check to that other bank. Do keep the funds separate until the tax situation is resolved. Caller: If you could still buy additional dong and hold onto it? Tony: I would, and that is just me personally. Don’t buy anything you can’t afford. DC: We are not financial advisers, but the currencies we are talking about are all awesome. Caller: Would you exchange it all, or hold onto some for later? DC: I’m exchanging at the highest rate possible, and then I’m out. 239: [Appreciation] If I go into the bank to get a contract rate but it’s not available any more, I don’t want the international rate yet because that might go up in a few days. How do I get another appointment if I’d rather wait for the second mouse? Tony: I would go to my appointment and see if they have the rate I wanted. If they don’t, I would go back to the exchangers. They will lock your rate in. If you don’t have the ability to watch it go up and down, then don’t do that. Just exchange and we’ll find other ways to make money. This is like an IPO, and it might shoot up and down, and if you get stuck on that down cycle, you lose. But Sterling said he would let you lock in the rate, though I don’t understand how he would do that. Caller: If I haven’t bought it with Sterling, can I still use Sterling to exchange? Tony: I believe so. When it’s all over, money talks and BS walks. Caller: So the international is the set rate, and the market rate goes up and down. Tony: The international rate is how it starts out, then it goes up and down according to market conditions. Sterling said he will exchange at market rate. Caller: How do I find the 3-D car video? [Go to Youtube and do a search.] What was the rate on the teller’s screen? Tony: All I can say is that the rate is over $3. Caller: Will they have a website where we can see what the rates are? DC: They are trying to prevent that. You will have a choice at the appointment of A, B or C. That’s why we would prefer to help you all some more is because if there are a lot of decisions to be made, then people need to know what they mean by lower and higher rates/taxes, etc. It will cause chaos. Even after the contract rate is gone, there will still be issues for the bank staff, security, and everyone else. It is so much better if some customers have a better idea of the process, or it’s just going to be a mess. 650 caller: Plan A was that there would be a full RV, contract rate, within a certain period of time. Then Plan B said, “If you guys can’t play nice, the RV will go to some other country, and the US will not get contract rates.” What’s happening now? Tony: If this thing gets put off until there is another squeaky wheel, that is different from it being in Iraq’s hands. They have the power and authority, but is the desire the same? On the surface, they’ve had a week of “right now”. So now they are letting people know that either you are not really in charge, or you’re willing to piss off your own people at someone else’s behest. DC: Iraq can absolutely do this whenever they choose. Any delays have been upfront and honest. Therefore they haven’t reverted, and the international community is fairly okay although they are a bit frustrated as the Iraqis are. At least there has been little or no subversion. As long as that is going on, Iraq can do this when it needs to. Caller: So the CBI has that choice now. The gentleman who was in charge for so long got moved out and now we have a new guy. So that is the opportunity for many changes in timing, support, and so on. Can you comment? DC: I think you have a good point, but I’m going to argue the other side. Maliki consistently failed to do what he said he would do. When he tried to force it, the US would create an issue, such as that M was not the most honest person. Now the US is saying that we are supporting the inclusive GOI, and we’re in deep doodoo if Iraq doesn’t stabilize. The US is highly motivated and so is Abadi, because he knows the world is not going to put up with another Maliki and his games. So it feels more stable to me. I like the that they are still running those shows. Abadi just slapped a big juicy steak in the face and dared him to do something about it. Also, ISIL is right in their face now. It’s not just the US controlling this. We have given way too much credit to half-a-dozen influential people. China has to fix their oil shortfall. The rest of the world are against ISIL, and those guys are killing and raping their way across the country. This all blocks Abadi and the GOI in to do this NOW, and if not, they’d better have a really good excuse for any further delay. Tony: In the back room, Abadi must be saying “I would like to help you but I can’t, because the public is waiting and we don’t’ want to see what we saw last August. You don’t want to light that fire again!” Caller: My concern is not Abadi, it’s the CBI. They took Turki out, put the new guy, and we don’t know what the motivations are of the people who own the CBI. I believe Abadi is the right man for this, but can you speak about Ishmael rather than Turki? DC: What makes the new guy different is that he can be replaced if he doesn’t do his job. “You do what you’re going to do or we’ll find someone else.” He knows full well that he might be able to arrange a nice place offshore, but it’s only for a few days unless he does what he is supposed to do. Tony: The fact they brought him in doesn’t matter because everything has already signed off on this. By doing what he did, Abadi has limited the amount he can do in the back room. His position is out there, in public. How long can he do these television informercials, knowing that this has to be in the Gazette by Wednesday? DC: They will forgive a lot once this get done, but much past Wednesday you will have issues. People are not idiots; they know what Abadi said and didn’t’ say. If he turns off the television broadcasts, it will be a slap in everyone’s face, and they will remember. That’s not just my opinion, but the view of those on the streets. There are only a few ways this can come out, and they are all good for us. Tony: How will this play out? I think it will end up a great thing for all of us. I might give them until Wednesday, but after all the expectations, the announcements in the mosque and on television… after you are being told that for a week, and it doesn’t happen, that is giving power back to the streets that they don’t want to be there. Even in areas that are not affected, it’s easy to strike that match, and the GOI doesn’t want that because they don’t control it, the people on the streets control that. It’s after 12, time’s up! DC: For the 4-5 days, they have told people this is here, and people are very frustrated that this didn’t go through. Prices are changing all over Iraq. CBI have said many times, “It’s up to us, make sure you are ready”. Banks have been prepping and now we need it to happen. We don’t know when, the CBI has specifically said they will do it when they choose. Pam: We know that we are right here, and we’re in it to win it! Tony: We have a few minister we talk to us, and every time we have a call, they cannot find the mute button! Ray might be having a preacher problem right now. Our sources say that Parliament has finalized everything, including economic reform, and the last two ministers. We should see it no later than Wednesday, and be fully recorded in the Gazette, which makes it law. We talked about the messages on television and its impact. Hopefully Wednesday will be either THE call, or our goodbye call. If not, as Pam remarked, the bill has to be paid. Pam: To make a donation, go to www.tntdinar.com and click the DONATE button. Tony: I’m sure there will be lots of information on the internet because there is always discussion after our call. I am happy to do another call later today, even during Monday football. I will put out a tweet if we get some really good news, or even bad news. Enjoy your day! *************************************************************************

Feeling unhappy in your marriage, men? Stop being selfish and focus on your wife's happiness then, dictates new research.

Researchers have found that the key to marital bliss is all about women's feelings and the happier they are, the better.

The study revealed that the more content the wife is within the marriage, the happier the husband is with his life as a result.

Unhappy in love? The key to a happy marriage is all about keeping your wife content, reveals new research from Rutgers University

Speaking about her research, Dr Deborah Carr of Rutgers University in the US, said: 'I think it comes down to the fact that when a wife is satisfied with the marriage she tends to do a lot more for her husband, which has a positive effect on his life.

'Men tend to be less vocal about their relationships and their level of marital unhappiness might not be translated to their wives.' 

Her research, she says, is extensive and important because both men and women's feelings and how they affect others were taken into account.

'For both spouses, being in a better-rated marriage was linked to greater life satisfaction and happiness.'

Key to happiness? Researchers believe that when a wife is satisfied with the marriage she tends to do a lot more for her husband, which has a positive effect on his life

The study also found that wives take the role of the carer if their husband becomes unwell, which, in turn, lowers their mood.

Men's happiness levels, however, didn't change if their wife fell sick and left the role of carer to the daughter. 

Researchers said the study, published in the Journal of Marriage and Family, is particularly important because health and wellbeing can be impacted by marriage quality.

Farmer who lost half his skull in after falling from a building has it rebuilt using 3D printed titanium mesh 

·        46-year-old Hu Wei was injured after falling from the third floor of his home

·        Has now had skull re-built with a titanium mesh created by a 3D printer

·        Implant was inserted under Hu's skin and attached to his skull 

·        Doctors hope it will allow his brain to heal, helping him to speak again 

A Chinese farmer left with a large chunk missing from his skull has undergone groundbreaking surgery with the help of a 3D printer - and may re-gain the ability to speak as a result. 

Hu Wei, 46, was injured after falling down three floors of his home in Xi'an, the capital city of the Shaanxi province in north west China.

He smashed his head against some wood, leaving him with a large part of his skull caved in.

This damaged his brain, causing him to lose vision in his left eye, experience double vision, and leaving him unable to speak or write.

After falling down three floors of his home in Xi'an, Shaanxi province, in north west China, Hu damaged his brain, causing blindess in his left eye, double vision and leaving him unable to speak or write

He has now undergone pioneering surgery to have a customised titanium mesh implanted into his skull

+6

The custom-made implant was inserted under Hu's skin and attached to his skull during a three-and-a-half hour operation at Xijing hospital, in north west China

His wife said he could still walk and understand the jokes made about him by people living in his neighbourhood, who have called him the 'half head man' or 'Frankenstein', according to the International Business Times.

Now, in a surgery that was one of the first of its kind, doctors at Xijing Hospital replaced his skill with a customised 3D printed titanium mesh that was moulded in the shape of the part of his skull that had been lost.

Doctors hope the surgery will not only restore the shape of Hu's skull but also may allow the brain to repair itself and grow so Hu can regain the ability to speak.

The hospital brought in doctors from around the world to help come up with a solution to Hu's injuries.

After deciding to implant the 3D printed titanium mesh, the surgery was performed on the 28th August and lasted for three and a half hours.

The lead surgeon was Professor Shu Mao Guo, head of the department of Plastic Surgery at Xijing Hospital, and has published several papers researching advancements in medicine to restore tissues or organs.

Hu's wife said people living in his neighbourhood have called him the 'half headman' or 'Frankenstein' (

Hu's scalp and meninges - the protective membranes covering the brain - were melded together after the accident. They had to be peeled apart before the titanium mesh could be implanted.

The surgeons also had to separate temporal muscles at the front of the head without causing further injury. 

The printing materials were made specifically for Hu in Belgium, at one of the world's few specialist 3D printing facilities. They have been sponsored by Stryker, an American medical device manufacturer.

Titanium mesh was chosen because it usually doesn't cause any adverse reaction- although doctors now will watch Hu to make sure the implant is not rejected by his body.

THE 3D PRINTING REVOLUTION 

Using 3D printers create customised replacement body parts is revolutionising medicine.

This year, surgeons in China successfully implanted an artificial 3D-printed vertebra into a 12-year-old bone cancer patient to help him walk again.

Doctors at Peking University Hospital in Beijing first removed a tumour located in the second vertebra of the boy's neck.

Last month, surgeons in China successfully implanted an artificial 3D-printed vertebra (pictured) into a 12-year-old bone cancer patient to help him walk again

They then replaced it with the 3D-printed implant between the first and third vertebrae to allow him to lift his head.

The five-hour surgery was a world first and will enable the boy named Minghao to walk again after spending two months confined to a hospital bed.

While 3D-printed organs are not yet commonly used, there have been previous cases of patients being implanted with 3D-printed jaws, hips and even a pelvis.

'This is the first use of a 3D-printed vertebra as an implant for orthopaedic spine surgery in the world,' Dr Liu Zhongjun, who performed the surgery, told Chinese media CCTV.

Using existing technology, the patient's head needs to be framed with pins after surgery. The patient's head cannot touch the bed when he is resting. This lasts for at least three months,' Dr Liu said.

'But with 3D printing technology, we can simulate the shape of the vertebra, which is much stronger and more convenient than traditional methods,' said Dr Liu Zhongjun, who performed the surgery

And last year, British surgeons used 3D printing technology to recreate the severely injured face of a road accident victim.

The unaffected side of the biker’s face was used to create a mirror image, to enable perfect facial reconstruction.

The images are were both to design guides to cut and position facial bones with pinpoint accuracy and create tailor-made implants for the patient.

KTFA Monday Night KTFA CC With Frank26 and Delta: Notes by BulldogFord65

Notes by BulldogFord65:

IQD update

• Please do not call Frank with questions about what other websites are saying

• In Frank’s opinion, we are seeing the MR (Monetary Reform)  right before our eyes, some can see it, some cannot; the IQD is a speculative investment, don’t invest more than you are able to lose, or so much that you are hurting; Frank showed 2 articles based on the same information that are totally opposite; do not become discouraged, take it to the Lord in prayer, stay strong

• Frank brought on member My Ladies who spoke of signs of the MR – telling the citizens they will be paid, salaries will increase, Visa cards, opening of Rafidain and Rashid banks, Paris Club paid, Iraq obtaining a credit rating, selling bonds, etc.; there is a long list of indicators of the MR
....

• Frank requested Walkingstick to pull together several articles, go back through and read the articles, pay close attention to what the CBI is saying

• My Ladies referred to a quote by Abadi who said that he is going to fix the financial side first, and speed up the process, then develop the private sector – without a rate, how can the private sector be developed? Laws are being implemented; there is a cascade of articles one after the other talking about the MR

• Frank again asked that we go back and look at the compilations by Walkingstick; there are many things that are obvious, others that are confusing, others that cannot be discussed yet (needs more study), and other things in the media that are childish; so, pay attention to the CBI, look at what they are saying

• I Team report is that security is getting much better, it is much better; ISIS is being managed; Fox News reporting that Great Britain is not participating in the coalition, but I Team confirms they most certainly are part of it;

This past weekend, Australia and Germany rained down on ISIS; there are 50 countries in the coalition, and they are raining down on ISIS; drones are grounded and F-16’s are in the air; the GOI and CBI have new leaders, there is unity and stability; the citizens are being taught about the Visa cards and ATM’s, they are being educated to go electronic;

As of Saturday, Dr S was still in Baghdad but he may have moved on by now; many officials from the USA are in Iraq and in control;

I Team believes Dr S is done as he was being very prominent, he brought the CBI up to code, and now he is not in the forefront;

MOF, gov of CBI, PM of GOI are all put in their positions by USA; be careful of media reports, many are false, but not so much mis-information as information that has not been updated;

I Team believes that we will see the GOI act with incredible speed; “still smells like pudding”

• In Frank’s opinion, the GOI is seated based on reports from I Team, Delta’s team, and what they are doing

• Oct 1 is the middle of the year for the IMF budget, Oct 1 is the beginning of the new fiscal year; it’s an interesting time

Delta came on the call at this point

• Delta agrees with what Frank has presented; regarding the new GOI, all but 2 positions have been seated (interior and defense ministers not seated yet); each minister has been vetted and approved by the USA, so if the USA is controlling the selections, we can also believe the USA is in charge of the MR; the 2 ministers are to be seated tomorrow, and the GOI will have the full international support

• SA is very powerful because of their money, and some have believed that they were behind ISIS and Daash because SA wanted M out; ISIS and Daash are now being run out of Iraq

• A long time ago, Turki said he wanted the deletion of the 000’s in middle of 2014, but CBI governor does not have the power to lift the zeros; why have we not seen it yet? M was making deals for currency swaps, making deals with BRICS nations, etc, which was bad for the US$; it’s all about money

• Tomorrow should see the last 2 ministers seated, then we should see more things happening with salaries, cards, etc; when the time is right with stability, compliance, the 000’s will be lifted; there are a lot of great things happening, should see more happening on Tuesday; the emergency meeting in France also shows the international support for Iraq – do we see this with any other ME nation? No

• Frank said Iraq has something the whole world wants, so they are all leaning in to help and support – look how many have swooped in at the last minute to get in on the coalition

• Delta cited an article that new currency being introduced by the end of this month, and currency samples have been sent to banks, with hope to implement by end of this month

• Frank said everything is just waiting on the rate: HCL, lower denoms, salaries, etc….;

Delta said all just waiting on the USA to go ahead with the release of the rate; Delta said we know they are ready, just need to have the stability and now Daash and ISIS are being eliminated; good economy is borne out of stability, look at other ME nations, like UAE

• Delta said that Iraq does need a credit rating; Frank and Delta believe that Sept will be time to ensure the stability, and October will possibly be time to enact, in their opinion; no one knows the date or rate, can happen anytime, and it may take some time

• Frank said that many laws need to be passed before we can see the rate, and the GOI working with speed, no longer dragging their feet

• Delta said that there is no way this can fail, and the rate will come out when it’s sure that it cannot fail;

Things are happening the way we want to see them going; the safety and security for the Iraqi people is increasing

• Frank ended the call with prayer, and Andy lifted the prayer with the shofar horn blast

[Bear'sOpenHeart] NEW DINAR AND BETWEEN LISTED ASSETS MANAGED BY REUTERS !; GLOBAL RESET HAS STARTED! 

Published by admin September 12th, 2014 in Economy , Current Policy Well, guys, since fate has made it a server (thanks to an astute reader) who has the honor to announce the EXCLUSIVE WORLD MOST IMPORTANT OF ALL TIME (until the ETs down, of course), neither more nor less than Reset the start of the monetary system, embodied in the Iraqi dinar.

This morning I included it in a post that claims forero within the elite of the good called "Exogen" stating that the new dinar was already working at a digital level in the global market. Well, just hours later, a follower of  www.rafapal.com   working in the world of finance sent me a screenshot of Reuters (not only sends news but the price reflects market) confirming information "Exogen "and shows some deposits handled by a background of Dubai where it appears associated with the Dinar, the expression NEWD (New Dinar).

And it is from yesterday, September 11, the day the mythical forero said. Below the screenshot witnessing the beginning of the New Age, the explanation that this reader offers but just not yet believe, read:

the Swiss government will support its currency, or o. Eye! the process has already begun does not mean that we see yet. Surely, the new dinar late yet to hit the market ... I'm probably weeks ahead when it becomes public. PD. So now that you understand the Faint gave Emilio Botin? He stood no surname !!

A Scary Obituary

THIS IS SAD BUT THINK ABOUT IT AFTER YOU READ IT.  THEN READ IT AGAIN.

                                                            DON’T SAY YOU HAVEN’T BEEN WARNED!

                    A Scary Obituary  

In 1887 Alexander Tyler, a Scottish history professor at the University of Edinburgh , had this to say about the fall of the Athenian Republic some 2,000 years prior:   "A 'democracy' is always temporary in nature.  It simply cannot exist as a permanent form of government. A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover that they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse over loose fiscal policy (which is) always followed by a dictatorship." "The average age of the world's greatest civilizations from the beginning of history has been about 200 years. During those 200 years, these nations always progressed through the following sequence: From bondage to spiritual faith From spiritual faith to great courage From courage to liberty From liberty to abundance From abundance to complacency From complacency to apathy From apathy to dependence From dependence back into bondage The Obituary follows:  Born 1776, Died 2016  It doesn't hurt to read this several times. Professor Joseph Olson of Hamline University School of Law in St. Paul, Minnesota, points out some interesting facts concerning the last Presidential election: Number of States won by:            Obama: 19                    Romney: 29 Square miles of land won by:      Obama: 580,000            Romney: 2,427,000 Population of counties won by:   Obama: 127 million      Romney: 143 million Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by:                                             Obama: 13.2             Romney: 2.1 Professor Olson adds: "In aggregate, the map of the territory Romney won was mostly the land owned by the tax paying citizens of the country. Obama territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in low income tenements and living off various forms of government welfare..." Olson believes the United States is now somewhere between the "complacency and apathy" phase of Professor Tyler's definition of democracy, with some forty percent of the nation's population already having reached the "governmental dependency" phase.. If Congress grants amnesty and citizenship to twenty million criminal invaders called illegal’s - and they vote - then we can say goodbye to the USA in fewer than five years. If you are in favor of this, then by all means, delete this message. If you are not, then pass this along to help everyone realize just how much is at stake, knowing that apathy is the greatest danger to our freedom.. GOD, PLEASE SAVE AMERICA!
